About the Book Tatiana:
Tatiana Bergman views life through a different lens than most. She says and does what she likes without regard for hurt feelings on the way. Living in the 1840s in rural Pennsylvania, her passionate, impulsive behavior confounds her sisters and appals her peers.
Life only gets more complicated when Tatiana befriends Jonny Creek, a mischievous young man whose Native American blood puts him on the fringes of society. Jonny is trouble; Tatiana is intrigued. Together they spell out disaster. From being chased by wolves, to bashing around fancy gatherings, the unlikely pair get into one scrape after another.
When tragedy strikes the Bergman family, Tatiana is compelled to leave the security of her childhood home to live in the bustling city of Philadelphia. There, she is forced into adulthood as she deals with a mysterious young coworker and an unsavoury employer.
Tatiana struggles to subdue her wild spirit and keep her heart pure while making the right choices and wrestling with her own woman she finds herself in a battle of her will between two young men and the God she serves.

My Thoughts on Tatiana:
This is such a sweet read. I loved watching Tatiana grow and change. She starts as a spoiled brat with no mother and an oft absent working father and grows and changes. These changes are due to giving her heart to God as a child. Once she learns to control her sinful ways and be a bit less spoiled her life gets better and becomes more interesting.
Tatiana didn’t have many friends before she learned to control her wicked ways. Now she goes off to take care of children who’s mother died much like hers. When she comes home she’s a young woman and so changed from her young girl ways.
Will she do the unthinkable and fall in love with an Indian man or will she play it safe with the pastor’s son?
I love that this is going to be a series as I really enjoyed this book and see myself enjoying the rest of the series as well. They’re being added to my to be read list as I type. You’re going to love getting to know Tatiana and watching her change and grow.
This time period isn’t one I read about often. Tatiana was born in the 1830s so the main action in the book takes place before the Civil War. The Civil War is a time period I have read and studied a lot about. I think I might like to start researching the 20-30 years leading up to the war now.
